This would be three dimensions. Appian does only support two dimensions OOTB. You could just use the x-axis for time (e.g. grouped by hour) and the number of request for the y-axis. Appian is pretty good in handling large amounts of data and allows to zoom in.

Another idea would be to use the Google charts plugin with more options.

Example code we are using. We want to change the "number of cases" to "time of day".
